Genocidal Israel and Australian Government and Media Cowardice

Originally posted by bikemad: ↑

Australian and western media non reporting of Israel's open genocide of the Palestinian people in Gaza is disturbing to say the least. Why isn't our media calling it out for what it is? This is not a video game or some pretend thing that is happening in a parallel universe. It is the brutal and relentless slaughter of innocent men, women and children, the elderly and babies and it is happening now as you read this. Can you imagine how terrified the Palestinian people must be, under continual bombing, never knowing when or if the next bomb will be a direct strike on their family but knowing the last bomb that shook their world has blown another family to pieces. The Israelis are murdering these people on an industrial scale and our media are treating it like it's a normal event. The Australian government are also silent when they should be showing leadership to a western world that is largely complicit to this appalling genocide.

History will show that Australia along with other "western" countries, remained largely silent when thousands of oppressed, innocent people were being slaughtered by Israel. Our government and media cowardice not to call out in the strongest, loudest terms brings great shame on the Australian people, and yet I truly believe the majority of Australians would want our government do everything they could to stop this appalling slaughter of innocent people.

This is not a time for diplomacy. The Australian Government need to act now, openly, in the strongest terms, so the whole world hears them clearly.

You see DW news channel refer to Israeli genocide, Al Jazeera has a daily segment with both Israeli and Palestinian analysts who both refer to Israeli actions as genocidal, virtually all nations outside the 5 eyes ones see thru the Israeli propaganda and use the term genocide, but here we have a thug in opposition who would gladly send our kids over there to help with the murders of tens of thousands of children and a gutless mouse of a PM who can barely raise a squeak of protest .
There are thousands of Israeli paid vile trolls on social media sites parroting the official lies and attacking those who question the idea of getting involved in Israels eternal feuds.
We get much the same thing regarding the Russian actions to rid Ukraine of it's Nazi leadership and the massing of heavy weapons on it's borders , we saw the lies and official clown narrative regarding the covid scamdemic, and now there is a massive buildup of US military forces in the top end of Australia that hardly anyone seems aware of.

People accepted the absurdities, now they are accepting the atrocities , thinking it is all in their best interests.

It is a shameful time to be a citizen of the west , knowing that your tax contributions are going toward helping Israel slaughter hundreds of children every day , without any remorse .
